Yep ... sure had to be that unforgettable night.
Spine tingling, teary, goosebumps and awe.
Resolute, fearless .. the unifying force and
solace of a courageous and noble leader, on
display for the whole world.

Ooh, for the resolve and confidence and the
PRESIDENT of those days.
You’re very much welcome you guys! Finding whatever brand new stories and photos on President Bush and his family gives me such joy and pleasure and I am more than happy to share them all with you whenever possible! This man is absolutely one-of-a-kind and no one in our hearts will ever replace him, certainly not Obama!
That was an unforgettable Moment when he did that perfect pitch
THANK YOU BOTH for the photo and video reminder of THE PITCH!! [I’m sure that GWB has many fond memories of his friend George Steinbrenner!]
Oh my gosh, have you all seen this yet? You can thank the Drudge Report for giving President Bush’s book, “Decision Points” a very early publicity push. It’s now ranked at #4 overall on Amazon! That’s not until the book get officially released on November 9th. Bush’s book is also:
#1 in Books > History > Americas
#1 in Books > History > United States > 21st Century
#1 in Books > Biographies & Memoirs > Historical > United States
And to think those naysayers say he’s the most worst and hated President ever! Check these stats for yourself:

Wonderful find, Patty! Thanks! And doesn’t he look trim and fit.
OUR president gets more handsome each and every day!
Excellent ! It’s gonna be huge.
WOW! WHAT A TREAT! Howdy everyone!
pattyvita, you’re amazing!!! Thanks, Kaslin, Starwise, Nord, DrDeb, OhioWfan and everyone I’ve neglected to name.
The pics are fabulous! It’s so nice to look at sweet memories, but it’s also super nice to see him enjoying retirement, isn’t it?
((((GROUP HUG)))))
I love the fact that Drudge and the uber haters at FreeRepublic thought they were hurting President Bush with their snarky comments . . . President Bush will laugh all the way to #1 on the NY Times bestseller list!!
[Unfortunately, I’m getting the dreaded red x rather than your new photo of GWB — bummer!]
(((hug))) back! It IS good to see him enjoying himself. He is
so comfortable in his skin that I knew it would be a serene
time for him. He makes transitions easily. WE are the ones
who didn’t and don’t! LOL!
patty - I’ve tried everything...it’s turned into a red ‘x’ now....can’t see ;( -—thanks for trying!!!
THANKS. :)

Hope that works out now!
Wow, wonderful pictures and story. Thanks so much for posting.
Great memories, and love the picture with Steinbrenner. Of course, The Pitch is one of my most favorite pictures of President Bush. I just re-read an article from the day, and it was an amazing, courageous act of a President trying to rally his country.
Miss W? Yes, I sure do.
Hopefully, this will work oWf...
or, I could try this...
Note the photos on the wall - THE President and his lovely bride, Laura walking at Camp David, etc.
(He's obviously still in love. :)
